Divorce can be a very emotive and difficult time, not just for the couple, but also for their children and other family members.
Couples invariably separate because they are not getting on with each other or because they have grown apart.
Ideally the arrangements for any minor children will be agreed and there would be no need for these to be formalised in a court order.
However, some parents cannot agree what the arrangements for their children will be after separation - and a court will need to decide.

We firmly believe in being transparent about how we charge and have always published our hourly rates on our website.
We also offer fixed fees - but every case is different - so fixed fees are bespoke to the individual client.
When we redesigned our website in the summer of 2020, we included the title divorce costs - as a page to be added.
When it came to writing the content - we started by googling divorce costs and we came across a number of unregulated websites offering low-cost fixed fee divorce.
